High contrast coloured talking version with braille buttons of the DGT 3000 FIDE approved chess clock for the blind and visually impaired
The DGT Echo is a chess clock specially designed for blind and visually impaired chess players. The chess clock is based on the DGT 3000. The functionality that has been added is that the chess clock speaks. All settings and clock times are spoken in the English language and the clock is provided with braille buttons. The choice of the yellow and black colour scheme has also been made consciously because visually limited players can often perceive the best contrast with this colour scheme. Special anti-slip rubber feet are placed on the bottom so that the clock stays in place.
The DGT 3000 is approved by the International Chess Federation FIDE and can connect to all electronic DGT e-Boards.
This chess clock comes with:
- 2 single sided earphones
- Braillecard
- DGT Echo quick guide
- 2 batteries
- DGT Echo manual
